View Full Version : XP Printing to BSD Print Server

Has anyone had problems printing to a BSD Print Server from Windows XP P2? We have no other issues aside from the 7 or 8 XP SP2 laptops - all other Windows 2000/Windows XP SP1 devices print fine. When we upgrade to SP2, we start getting various errors no matter the application: Word, Excel, Email, PDFs, etc. Notepad returns an RPC error. IE returns a scripting error - it appears to be something due to previewing the page. At any rate, it's pretty annoying and difficult to debug.

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

The local port used is actually for a Samba Printer Port - FYI. There has to be something related, rather than using a Windows machine as a Print Server.

In another post, I found my web page error:

"line 1174 character 1, file C:\WINDOWS\System32\shdoclc.dll/preview.dlg."

Thanks.
